I had expected to find changes, but not a completely different building. As I walked up the school drive, I wondered for a moment if I had come to the right address. The dirty red brick houses had been swept away. In its place stood a bright, modern block. A huge expanse of glass extended (延展) across the face of the building, and in front, there was a well-kept lawn (草坪) where previously ther e had been “an untidy gravel (沙石) yard”.I was pleased to find that it was bread time and that the children were all in the playground. This would enable me to meet some members of staff(职员). On entering the building, I was surprised to hear loud laughter coming from what appeared to be the masters’ common room.I could not help remembering the teachers in my time, all dressed in black gowns (长袍) and high collars (领子). And above all, I recalled Mr Garston whom we had nicknamed “Mr Ghastly”, the headmaster w ho had iron discipline(纪律) on staff and pupils alike. I knocked at the common room door and was welcomed by a smiling young man who introduced himself to me as the headmaster. He was dressed casually in a sports jacket, and his cheerful manner, quickly dispelled (驱散) the image of Mr Ghastly. After I had explained who I was, the headmaster presented me to the teachers all of whom were a little younger than himself, and said he would take me round the school.Here the biggest surprise of all was______(在等待)me. Gone were the heavy desks of old with their deeply carved names; gone too, were the dark classrooms with their ink stained, dark brown walls, and their raised platforms for the teachers. The rooms now were painted in bright colors, and the children, far from sitting straight in their places, seemed almost free to do as they liked. I looked with envy(嫉妒) as I remembered how, as a child, I had looked at the blackboard hardly daring to whisper to my neighbor.41．“Mr Ghastly” must be ______.A．the writer’s tea cher B．a serious old manC．the strict headmaster D．a naughty boy42．Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．He had expected that the school had completely changed.B．In the writer’s time, all the teachers were dressed in black gowns and high colla rs. C．There was a well-kept lawn in their school when he visited it.D．An untidy gravel yard had disappeared.43．From what is said in the passage, it seems clear that the writer ______.A．disapproved of all the changes that had taken placeB．felt sorry for the children in the schoolC．was glad that the school was still the sameD．felt that conditions at the school had improved a lotAs children enter their teens, they usually begin to pay more attention to their peers (同龄人) or friends. Peer pressure (压力) can be direct or indirect, but it is almost always present. Learning to deal with peer pressure makes a teen mature (成熟的), and able to get along well with others.Bad peer pressure is when teens feel pressured to do something that they know is wrong, such as smoking, drinking, or drugs (毒品), and it can remain (保持) with them into adulthood. This is the main reason teens have to learn how to deal with it.Some of the things you can do to deal with peer pressure include:● Choose friends who share your values. Good friends use positive (正面的) peer pressure to help you be your best self.● Keep away from situations where people are doing things you don’t want to do.● Think about your reasons for doing things. Are they good reasons? Are you being true to yourself and your values?● Practice ways of saying no, giving excuses if necessary.● Talk to your parents, or other trusted adults, about the kinds of peer pressure you face, and listen to their advice.● Let the adults know when you need help to get out of a bad situation, and don’t know what to do about it.Remember that if just one teen______(对抗) peer pressure, usually others will join him or her. Learning to deal with peer pressure will make you confident and mature.44．According to the passage, which of the following is true?A．Peer pressure includes direct and indirect pressure.B．Peer pressure comes from smoking, drinking and using drugs.C．Teens facing pressure can’t tell right from wrong.D．Teens who face pressure are more mature than those who don’t45．Teens should learn to deal with peer pressure mainly because ______.A．it can keep them from making serious mistakesB．it can influence them even when they have grown upC．learning to deal with it can help them get along well with othersD．learning to deal with it can make them mature and confident46．According to the passage, teens should ______.A．stay away from people who don’t share their valuesB．have good reasons for anything they doC．say no more often than yesD．ask adults they trust for help47．Which column(专栏) of a magazine may the passage be from?A．Social problem. B．School news.C．For teens. D．Science.Finished school for the summer? It’s great to kick back and relax after the school year-and you deserve it! －but it might also be the time to start building that resume(履历) to help you impress the college of your choice. Having a great resume doesn’t just mean getting a summer job; lots of activities can help you stay active and gain valuable experience over the summer months.·WorkGetting a job is one of the most practical ways to build your resume and impress colleges, even if working during the school year is not an option（选择）, look out for specific holiday jobs, like residential（寄宿的）summer camps that look for help during the summer months. Any job is good, but working in a leadership position or in an academic area looks particularly good on your resume. The more a job challenges you, the more it builds the skills that colleges and future employers are interested in seeing in applicants(申请者).·VolunteerGive back to gain resume points. Community service is another great way to gain valuable work and leadership experience. Nonprofit（非利益性）organizations such as soup kitchens and animal shelters are always looking for volunteers, and it shouldn’t b e difficult to find a volunteer organization near your home that could use an extra pair of hands for a few hours a week during the summer.·TravelThis may not be a viable（可行的）option for everyone, but if you can afford it, summer travel can be an exciting way to enrich your mind and improve your resume. Visiting and exploring （探索）foreign places will broaden your horizons（视野）, allowing you to expand your awareness of other people and cultures. It’s also a great chance to develop your language skills.·Take Classes“School” might be the last thing you want after a hard year of studying, but summer school isn’t always a bad thing. Colleges may look kindly upon applicants who take the initiative（主动）to further their education over the summer. There are a variety of options available for high school students wishing to take summer courses, both at their own schools and at local colleges. If your high school offers summer classes, they could be a great way to advance your math or language skills, two are as that are often lacking on students’ college applications. Local community colleges also offer summer courses for high school juniors and seniors that cover a variety of introductory-level topics. They not only look great on your transcript（成绩单）, but also provide a chance to improve your preparations for college and allow you to explore possible career options.48．What is the main benefit of summer activities according to the text?A．To enjoy yourself to the full.B．To enrich your resume.C．To develop certain skills.D．To improve your academic performance.49．What is the most practical activity to do during summer vacation?A．Getting a job. B．Traveling overseas.C．Doing volunteer work. D．Attending classes.50．According to the text, “soup kitchens and animal shelters”.A．are places that you can travel toB．might be included in summer coursesC．are recommended（推荐）as part-time jobs for the summerD．can be good volunteer jobs51．.Why is “taking classes” recommended in the article?A．It only takes a few hours a week.B．It can enrich your career experience.C．It can prepare you for further study.D．It can raise your cultural awareness.With the development of society, the choice of food and drinks for children is more diversified(多样化) than ever before. However, every coin has two sides. Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the statistics(数据统计). I feel there are a number of reasons for this.Some people blame（责怪）the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants then probably children would buy less take-away food.There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree to this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime（消遣）, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as guiding them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.52．What is suggested by the author to deal with “overweight”?A．Blaming the shops selling unhealthy and fatty foods.B．Asking young children to walk to school every day.C．Living an active life and giving up bad eating habits.D．Not watching TV or playing computer games after school.53．Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?A．B．C． D．54．The author writes the passage to __________A．show people a social problemB．provide facts for governmentC．advise solutions to a problemD．compare opinions with peopleBoys are not so good at English when there are girls in their class, a research student said. This finding disagrees with the widely held belief that girls always have a good influence on boys in school.Boys do best with as few girls as possible in English lessons at primary and secondary schools, Steven Proud, a research student at Bristol University, told the Royal Economic Society’s conference.But when it comes to math and science, both boys and girls at primary schools achieve up to a tenth of a grade higher when there is a greater percentage of girls in the class, Proud found. Proud kept a record of boys’ and girls’ test results at the ages of 7, 11, and 16 in 16,000 schools in England. He studied the test scores to see whether the percentage of girls made a difference to the results of both boys and girls in math, science and English.Boys always perform worse when the number of girls they study English with increases, which is especially the case at primary schools. Proud also found that girls are unaffected by the number of boys in their English class.Proud said boys may do worse in English when there is high proportion(比例) of girls in theirclass because they think that the girls are better than them. It could also be that teachers use teaching styles more appropriate(适合) to girls when there are more girls than boys in the class.Proud argues that his results show boys should be taught English in single-sex classes. However, Professor Alan Smithers, director of the Centre for Education and Employment Research at the University of Buckingham, said, “Boys may be discouraged by how well girls are doing in English, but you can’t say that it means boys and girls should be separated. It has very little practical importance to schools.”四、单词拼写单词拼写（5分）65．Our school rules won’ t have this kind of bad behavior go u_______.66．Nobody is willing to make friends with him because he is always finding f_____ with others.67．Though they live in the mountainous area, they are well kept i_______ about the outside world by watching TV every day.68．Could you give us an _________ (解释) of how water travels in water?69．I’m sorry to tell you that my father _____（禁止）me from watching the football game yesterday.五、选用适当得单词或短语补全句子选用动词短语的适当的形式填空be supposed to; feel like; mix…up; make good use of ; devote…to; come up with70．Xiao Feng works very hard because he believes that any student who _________the spare time can achieve high grades.71．Why are you still at home, Mike?

For each blank there are four choicesmarked A, B, C, D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage .We’ve all heard about the power of our attitude, and that it’s our attitude that determines how much we succeed in life.If you look around you, you will see that people with a positive attitude 36 life more and are generally happier and more successful than those who walk around grumpy and pessimistic. Our attitude is the driving force in our lives—it can either push you to do great things or pull you down to your demise.37 it’s true that humans are born with certain tendencies or orientations, our personalities and attitudes are developed through our relationships and experiences. Our attitudes begin to develop in childhood and constantly evolve and change over the years through day-to-day interactions and experiences.All the things that you have been 38 , or all the people you have met and interacted with can affect your attitude. Even if you think that all these factors have molded you into a person with a 39 attitude towards life, there is no need to worry as there is always a 40 for change. You can make it by doing some simple things. The first step towards change is to 41_ what needs to be changed. You need to do a(n) 42__ and in-depth self-evaluation so you can point out exactly which of your qualities need to be 43_ or totally changed. Besides, we all need to know that what we are trying to accomplish can 44_ be achieved, and that we can be more optimistic, more social and more patient. 45 someone who has the kind of attitude that you want to have, and let his or her life give you inspiration and 46 to move beyond your temporary failures on your 47 Towards becoming a successful person.

You’ll see that your effort to change will be 50 with this kind of people as friends. 51, believe that you’re able to change. Often, the greatest obstacle between us and our 52 is ourselves or our inability to 53 What we’re able to do.

Reading Comprehension (1× 18)A―Can you take me golfing sometimes?‖ my 13-year-old son asked.I had a bathroom to remodel(改建).

In front of the school, Ryan and Jared piled in. Ryan looked confused.―What’s with the golf hat, Dad ?‖ he askedIt was, I thought, a silly question, like asking a diver: ―What’s with the swim fins (脚蹼)？‖―Well, I thought we were going to play some golf.‖There was a strange pause. ―Uh, you’re going, too ?‖He asked. Suddenly, it struck me that I hadn’t been invited. Thirteen years of parenting flashed before my eyes.All these memories sped by in about two seconds, leaving me about three seconds to reply.I had to say something. I wanted to say this: ―H ow could you do this to me? We have always beena team.‖ But I said: ―Me? Play? No. You know I’m up to my ears in the remodel project.‖We drove on in silence for a few moments. ―So, how are you planning to play for this?‖ I asked, my wounnded ego(自我) reaching for the dagger(匕首)―Uh, could you loan me $7?‖Oh, I get it. He doesn’t want me, but he’ll gladly take my money.―No problem, ‖ I said.I dropped him and Jared off, wished them luck, and headed for home. Life would never be the same.I walked in the door. ―What are you doing home?‖ my wife asked.―I wasn’t invited.‖ I replied.Another one of those strange pauses came. Then my wife laughed. Out loud. At first, I was hurt. Then I, too, laughed.I went back to the bathroom remodel and realized that this is what life is all about: change.A few hours later, I heard Ryan walk in the front door.―Dad,‖he said, ―My game stinks(糟透了). Can you take me golfing sometime ? I need some help.‖I wanted to hug him and shout: ―I’m still needed!‖Instead, I got one of those serious-dad looks on my face and said: ―Sure, Ry, anytime.‖56. After the author picked up his son and Jared at school, he ____________.A.went to play golf with themB.refused to pay for his son’s gameC.realized that he had not been invited to the golf gameD.realized that he had forgotton to bring along his golf hat57.

They’re taking part in a new experiment by Oxford University to see if later classes can improve their exam results.Grades 10 students in the UK have to take the nationwide General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) exams. They have to pass these exams in order to study more advanced courses, and later apply for universities.The Oxford University project means that GCSE students from more than 100 schools across England will start school at 10 am, more than one hour later than the current start time (8:50 am).The project is based on scientific evidence that teenagers are ―out of sync(同步)‖ with traditional school hours, the Telegraph reported. And what they need is more sleep in the morning.―We know that something funny happens when you’re a teenager, in that you seem to be out ofsync with the world,‖ said professor Colin Epsie, who is leading the study. ―Your parents think it’s because you are lazy and opinionated（固执己见的）and everything will be OK if you could get to sleep earlier. But science is telling us that teenagers need to sleep more in the mornings.‖Everyone follows a natural cycle of sleep and wakefulness. Biology has decided that teenagers go to sleep around midnight and don’t feel fully awake until 9-10 am, according to scientists.That’s two hours later than adults. And their body clocks stay like this until the age of a round 21 for males, and 19 for females.―Society provides school for learning, but the brain provides sleep. So we are exploring the possibility that if you delay the schools start time until 10 am, that will improve learning performance,‖ said Epsie.The results could be positive, based on previous studies.An early study at the UK’s Monkseaton High School in 2009 found that starting an hour later improved grades in core subjects by 19 percent.The Oxford project is expecting to publish the results in 2018. It’s time to wait and see whether scientists will give us an excuse to get up late.64.. According to the article, students who take part in the Oxford University project _________.A. will start school one hour earlierB. will no longer have to take GCSE examsC. will perform better academically than those who don’t participateD. will be guaranteed more sleeping time in the morning65. The underlined phrase ―out of sync‖in Paragraph 5 probably means _____________ .A. breaking the habit of doing somethingB. getting used to doing somethingC. having no idea of somethingD. having trouble keeping up with something66. We can infer from the article that _______________ .A. the Oxford University project is targeted at all British high schoolsB. getting up late is a sign of laziness in the eyes of most British parentsC. children and adults have different natural cycles of sleep and wakefulnessD. there is still no scientific evidence that supports a late school start time67. What is the author’s attitude toward the Oxford University project ?A.CriticalB. OptimisticC. DoubtfulD. Uninterested68. What’s the best title of the article ?A. Wake up late to excelB. I t’s never too late to learnC. The later you get up, the better you’ll learnD. An excuse to get up lateDMy heart sank when the man at the immigration counter gestured to the back room. I was born and raised in America, and this was Miami, where I live, but they weren’t quite ready to let me in yet.―Please wait in here, Ms. Abujaber,‖ the immigration officer said. My husband, with his very American last name, accompanied me. He was getting used to this. The same thing had happened recently in Cana da when I’d flown to Montreal to speak at a book event. That time they held me for 45 minutes. Today we were returning from a literary festival in Jamaica, and I was shocked That I was being sent ―in back‖ on ceagain.The officer behind the counter called me up and said, ―Miss, your name looks like the name of someone who’s on our wanted list. We’re going to have to check you out with Washington.‖―How long will it take?‖―Hard to say…a few minutes,‖ he said, ―We’ll call you when we’re ready for you.‖ After an hour, Washington still hadn’t decided anything about me.―Isn’t this computerized?‖ I asked at the counter, ―Can’t you just look me up?‖―Just a few more minutes,‖ they assured me.After an hour and a half, I pulled my cell phone out to call the friends I was supposed to meet that evening. An officer rushed over. ―No phones!‖ he said, ―For all we know you could be calling a terrorist cell and giving them information.‖―I’m just a university professor,‖ I said. My voice came out in a squeak.―Of course you are. And we take people like you out of here in leg irons every day.‖I put my phone away.My husband and I were getting hungry and tired. Whole families had been brought into the waiting room, and the place was packed with excitable children, exhausted parents, and even a flight attendant.I wanted to scream, to jump on a chair and shout: ―I’m an American citizen; a novelist; I probably teach English literature to your children.‖After two hours in detention (扣押), I was approached by one of the officers. ―You’re free to go,‖ he said. No explanation or apologies. For a moment, neither of us moved. We were still in shock. Then we leaped to our feet.―Oh, one more thing,‖ he handed me a tattered photocopy with an address on it, ―If you are n’t happy with your treatment, you can write to this agency.‖―Will they respond?‖ I asked.―I don’t know—I don’t know of anyone who’s ever written to them before.‖ Then he added,‖By the way, this will probably keep happening eac h time you travel internationally.‖―What can I do to keep it from happening again?‖He smiled the empty smile we’d seen all day, ―Absolutely nothing.‖After telling several friends about our ordeal, probably the most frequent advice I’ve heard in response is to change my name. Twenty years ago, my own graduate school writing professor advised me to write under a pen name so that publishers wouldn’t stick me in what he called ―the ethnic ghetto‖—a separate, secondary shelf in the bookstore. But a name is an integral part of anyone’s personal and professional identity—just like the town you’re born in and the place where you’re raised.Like my father, I’ll keep the name, but my airport experience has given me a whole new perspective on what diversity and tolerance are supposed to mean. I had no idea that being an American would ever be this hard.69. The author was held at the airport because ______.A. she had been held in MontrealB.she had spoken at a book eventC. she and her husband returned from JamaicaD. her name was similar to a terrorist’s70.

In fact, it can be easy for an awkward situation to occur. Different customs can often cause misunderstandings and even trouble. To help prevent a serious culture pas, an article in the Daily Mail highlighted taboos in certain countries. Let’s take a look.FranceWhen visiting France, you’d better not be caught cutting your lettuce with a knife and fork. It’s an insult to the chef and suggests that the salad hasn’t been prepared correctly. The correct way to eat lettuce in France is to fold it with your fork to make it fit in your mouth.ItalyIt’s actually best to be a little less friendly than usual when you visit Italy. It’s considered strange to make small talk with strangers, as the locals are reserved. Too much familiarity from a stranger can be seen as threatening, so keep greetings short.MexicoIn Mexico, bringing an expensive gift to someone’s home is a no-no, as it could be seen as a tribe. Something simple like flowers and chocolates would be accepted. But you should avoid taking along marigolds (金盏花) or red flowers, because in Mexican culture, they symbolize death and can be associated with witchcraft(巫术).GermanyYou have to be careful with gifts of flowers in Germany too. Steer clear of carnations(康乃馨)，as they are used for funerals. And an even number is considered unlucky. So if you want togive your host flowers, ask them what their favorite flowers are before your visit. And be sure to bring an odd number.How to avoid 1.________ taboos in a new countryWriting: read the following passage and write an article of about 150 words according to the requirements.Culture in general is concerned with beliefs and values on the basis of which people explain experiences and behaviors, individually or in groups. Generally speaking, culture refers to a group or community with which you share common experiences that shape the way you understand the world.The same person, thus, can belong to several different cultures depending on his or her birthplace, nationality, ethnicity, family status, gender, age, language, education, physical cindition, religion, profession, place of work and so on.Culture is often at the root of communication challenges. Exploring historical experiences and the ways in which various cultural groups have related to each other is important in opening channels for cross-cultural communication. Becoming more aware of cultural differences, as well as exploring cultural similarities, can help you communicate with others more effectively. Next time you find yourself in a confusing situation, ask yourself how culture may be shaping your own reactions, and try to see the world from the others’ point of view.写作内容:1.用约30个单词写出上文概要;2.用约120个单词发表你的观点,内容包括:1)你如何看待文化多样性(cultural diversity) ?2)我们应该如何解决文化差异方面的问题?写作要求：1.在作文中可以使用亲身经历或虚构的故事，也可以参阅材料的内容，但不能直接引用文中原句。

It seems just like 21 the lottery(彩票), but better 22you get fame and money.For me, the dream seemed likely to stay a dream. But everything 23 last week in Beijing. I was eating dinner with some friends. As I was getting ready to pay, a young Chinese woman came running up to me. I was 24 that I must have done something horrible to offend(冒犯) her without 25 it.“You are a white man,” she said 26 when she got to our table.“Yes, I am a white man,” I replied.“Can you speak 27 ?” she asked.“Yes.”“Oh good.

My part was to walk from one end of the street to the other, and then 32 the club. When I got to the club, I was supposed to 33 to my friend and say, “Forget about the girl, man. We are here to party!” It took me three tries to say the line 34 orwalk without tripping(绊倒), but 35 I got it right.The talent scout ran to me afterward. “You are so 36 I would like you to join my agency.” I know I am not going to be the next Jay Chou. 37 , it seems that my 38 “star” talents are being white and being able to speak English.39 , next time you are watching a Chinese movie, look in the 40 If you see a white guy stumbling (蹒跚) on his way into a nightclub, it might just be me on my way to stardom (星途)! 21．A．accepting B．bargaining C．predicting D．winning 22．A．although B．as if C．since D．unless 23．A．began B．changed C．disappeared D．improved 24．A．amazed B．curious C．guilty D．worried 25．A．admitting B．imagining C．pretending D．realizing 26．A．breathlessly B．cautiously C．proudly D．surprisingly 27．A．Chinese B．English C．French D．Cantonese 28．A．cinemas B．nightclubs C．schools D．restaurants 29．A．introduced B．needed C．persuaded D．signed 30．A．come out B．stay up C．turn up D．show off 31．A．away B．around C．beyond D．up 32．A．enter B．name C．recognize D．search 33．A．find B．offer C．turn D．stick 34．A．quickly B．simply C．properly D．reasonably 35．A．finally B．hopefully C．obviously D．unfortunately 36．A．brave B．interesting C．strange D．talented 37．A．In return B．In brief C．In turn D．In fact 38．A．best B．last C．only D．other 39．A．Instead B．Besides C．However D．Otherwise 40．A．background B．connection C．expression D．meaning三、阅读选择After an absence of thirty years, I decided to visit my old school again. I had expected to find changes, but not a completely different building. As I walked up the school drive, I wondered for a moment if I had come to the right address. The dirty red brick houses had been swept away. In its place stood a bright, modern block. A huge expanse of glass extended (延展)across the face of the building, and in front, there was a well-kept lawn (草坪) where previously there had been “an untidy gravel (沙石) yard”.I was pleased to find that it was bread time and that the children were all in the playground. This would enable me to meet some members of staff(职员). On entering the building, I was surprised to hear loud laughter coming from what appeared to be the masters’ common room.I could not help remembering the teachers in my time, all dressed in black gowns (长袍) and high collars (领子). And above all, I recalled Mr Garston whom we had nicknamed “Mr Ghastly”, the headmaster who had iron discipline(纪律) on staff and pupils alike. I knocked at the common room door and was welcomed by a smiling young man who introduced himself to me as the headmaster. He was dressed casually in a sports jacket, and his cheerful manner, quickly dispelled (驱散) the image of Mr Ghastly. After I had explained who I was, the headmaster presented me to the teachers all of whom were a little younger than himself, and said he would take me round the school.Here the biggest surprise of all was______(在等待)me. Gone were the heavy desks of old with their deeply carved names; gone too, were the dark classrooms with their ink stained, dark brown walls, and their raised platforms for the teachers. The rooms now were painted in bright colors, and the children, far from sitting straight in their places, seemed almost free to do as they liked. I looked with envy(嫉妒) as I remembered how, as a child, I had looked at the blackboard hardly daring to whisper to my neighbor.41．“Mr Ghastly” must be ______.A．the writer’s teacher B．a serious old manC．the strict headmaster D．a naughty boy42．Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．He had expected that the school had completely changed.B．In the writer’s time, all the teachers were dressed in black gowns and high collars. C．There was a well-kept lawn in their school when he visited it.D．An untidy gravel yard had disappeared.43．From what is said in the passage, it seems clear that the writer ______. A．disapproved of all the changes that had taken placeB．felt sorry for the children in the schoolC．was glad that the school was still the sameD．felt that conditions at the school had improved a lotAs children enter their teens, they usually begin to pay more attention to their peers (同龄人) or friends. Peer pressure (压力) can be direct or indirect, but it is almost always present. Learning to deal with peer pressure makes a teen mature (成熟的), and able to get along well with others.Bad peer pressure is when teens feel pressured to do something that they know is wrong, such as smoking, drinking, or drugs (毒品), and it can remain (保持) with them into adulthood. This is the main reason teens have to learn how to deal with it.Some of the things you can do to deal with peer pressure include:● Choose friends who share your values. Good friends use positive (正面的) peer pressure to help you be your best self.● Keep away from situations where people are doing things you don’t want to do.● Think about your reasons for doing things. Are they good reasons? Are you being true to yourself and your values?● Practice ways of saying no, giving excuses if nece ssary.● Talk to your parents, or other trusted adults, about the kinds of peer pressure you face, and listen to their advice.● Let the adults know when you need help to get out of a bad situation, and don’t know what to do about it.Remember that if just one teen______(对抗) peer pressure, usually others will join him or her. Learning to deal with peer pressure will make you confident and mature.44．According to the passage, which of the following is true?A．Peer pressure includes direct and indirect pressure.B．Peer pressure comes from smoking, drinking and using drugs.C．Teens facing pressure can’t tell right from wrong.D．Teens who face pressure are more mature than those who don’t45．Teens should learn to deal with peer pressure mainly because ______.A．it can keep them from making serious mistakesB．it can influence them even when they have grown upC．learning to deal with it can help them get along well with othersD．learning to deal with it can make them mature and confident46．According to the passage, teens should ______.A．stay away from people who don’t share their valuesB．have good reasons for anything they doC．say no more often than yesD．ask adults they trust for help47．Which column(专栏) of a magazine may the passage be from?A．Social problem. B．School news.C．For teens. D．Science.Finished school for the summer? It’s great to kick back and relax after the school year-and you deserve it! －but it might also be the time to start building that resume(履历) to help you impress the college of your cho ice. Having a great resume doesn’t just mean getting a summer job; lots of activities can help you stay active and gain valuable experience over the summer months.·WorkGetting a job is one of the most practical ways to build your resume and impress colleges, even if working during the school year is not an option（选择）, look out for specific holiday jobs, like residential（寄宿的）summer camps that look for help during the summer months. Any job is good, but working in a leadership position or in an academic area looks particularly good on your resume. The more a job challenges you, the more it builds the skills that colleges and future employers are interested in seeing in applicants(申请者).·V olunteerGive back to gain resume points. Community service is another great way to gain valuable work and leadership experience. Nonprofit（非利益性）organizations such as soup kitchens and animal shelters are always looking for volunteers, and it shouldn’t be difficult to find a volunteer organization near your home that could use an extra pair of hands for a few hours a week during the summer.·TravelThis may not be a viable（可行的）option for everyone, but if you can afford it, summer travelcan be an exciting way to enrich your mind and improve your resume. Visiting and exploring （探索）foreign places will broaden your horizons（视野）, allowing you to expand your awareness of other people and cultures. It’s also a great chance to develop your language skills.·Take Classes“School” might be the last thing you want after a hard year of studying, but summer school isn’t always a bad thing. Colleges may look kindly upon applicants who take the initiative（主动）to further their education over the summer. There are a variety of options available for high school students wishing to take summer courses, both at their own schools and at local colleges. If your high school offers summer classes, they could be a great way to advance your math or language skills, two areas that are often lacking on students’ college applications. Local community colleges also offer summer courses for high school juniors and seniors that cover a variety of introductory-level topics. They not only look great on your transcript（成绩单）, but also provide a chance to improve your preparations for college and allow you to explore possible career options.48．What is the main benefit of summer activities according to the text?A．To enjoy yourself to the full.B．To enrich your resume.C．To develop certain skills.D．To improve your academic performance.49．What is the most practical activity to do during summer vacation?A．Getting a job. B．Traveling overseas.C．Doing volunteer work. D．Attending classes.50．According to the text, “soup kitchens and animal shelters”.A．are places that you can travel toB．might be included in summer coursesC．are recommended（推荐）as part-time jobs for the summerD．can be good volunteer jobs51．.Why is “taking classes” recommended in the article?A．It only takes a few hours a week.B．It can enrich your career experience.C．It can prepare you for further study.D．It can raise your cultural awareness.With the development of society, the choice of food and drinks for children is more diversified(多样化) than ever before. However, every coin has two sides. Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the statistics(数据统计). I feel there are a number of reasons for this.Some people blame（责怪）the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants then probably children would buy less take-away food.There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree to this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime（消遣）, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as guiding them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.52．What is suggested by the author to deal with “overweight”?A．Blaming the shops selling unhealthy and fatty foods.B．Asking young children to walk to school every day.C．Living an active life and giving up bad eating habits.D．Not watching TV or playing computer games after school.53．Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?A．B．C． D．54．The author writes the passage to __________A．show people a social problemB．provide facts for governmentC．advise solutions to a problemD．compare opinions with peopleBoys are not so good at English when there are girls in their class, a research student said. This finding disagrees with the widely held belief that girls always have a good influence on boys in school.Boys do best with as few girls as possible in English lessons at primary and secondary schools, Steven Proud, a research student at Bristol University, told the Royal Economic Society’s conference.But when it comes to math and science, both boys and girls at primary schools achieve up to a tenth of a grade higher when there is a greater percentage of girls in the class, Proud found. Proud kept a record of boys’ and girls’ test results at the ages of 7, 11, and 16 in 16,000 schools in England. He studied the test scores to see whether the percentage of girls made a difference to the results of both boys and girls in math, science and English.Boys always perform worse when the number of girls they study English with increases, which is especially the case at primary schools. Proud also found that girls are unaffected by the number of boys in their English class.Proud said boys may do worse in English when there is high proportion(比例) of girls in their class because they think that the girls are better than them. It could also be that teachers use teaching styles more appropriate(适合) to girls when there are more girls than boys in the class.Proud argues that his results show boys should be taught English in single-sex classes. However, Professor Alan Smithers, director of the Centre for Education and Employment Research at the University of Buckingham, said, “Boys may be discouraged by how well girls are doing in English, but you can’t say that it means boys and girls should be separated. It has very little practical importance to schools.”四、单词拼写单词拼写（5分）65．Our school rules won’ t have this kind of bad behavior go u_______.66．Nobody is willing to make friends with him because he is always finding f_____ with others.67．Though they live in the mountainous area, they are well kept i_______ about the outside world by watching TV every day.68．Could you give us an _________ (解释) of how water travels in water?69．I’m sorry to tell you that my father _____（禁止）me from watching the football game yesterday.五、选用适当得单词或短语补全句子选用动词短语的适当的形式填空be supposed to; feel like; mix…up; make good use of ; devote…to; come up with70．Xiao Feng works very hard because he believes that any student who _________the spare time can achieve high grades.71．Why are you still at home, Mike?

For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C, D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage .There is a Web site called the “World Database of Happiness”. It combines and __51__ the results of hundreds of surveys from around the world that have been conducted on life __52__. Most of the findings are predictable, but a few are __53__.The database(数据库) makes it __54__ that there is not a strong connection between material wealth and general contentment. It is a cliche(陈词滥调) to say that money __55__ buy happiness, but the old saying seems to be __56__ by research. Many people still stick to the belief that gaining riches will be the answer to all their problems, yet they are probably __57__.Studies have been __58__ on people who acquired sudden wealth, such as lottery winners. In most cases, after the initial joy had __59__，people were not left with a sense of lasting happiness. In fact, they __60__ to return to the way they felt before they became rich.__61__ contented people continue to be contented，__62__ those who were miserable in the past sink back into misery.If material wealth does not bring happiness, then __63__ does? Perhaps happiness has something to do with __64__ you live. The authorities at the World Database of Happiness have surveyed levels of happiness in different __65__. Apparently, people in America, Canada, and Singapore are very happy; people living in India and Russia, not surprisingly, are not happy.Other surveys consistently point to the importance of relationships. Family relationships，__66__， seem to be the key to long－term contentment. The Web site suggests that __67__ in love and having children are two of the situations that bring the greatest happiness.Nowadays people look to __68__ as an alternative source of satisfaction. People increasingly spend more time alone watching TV or surfing the Internet __69__ spending time with family. Can technology truly make people happy?

It is remarkable first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sports to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre, and music. A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out, glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性) , its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient value. For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day‟s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspape r. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.74 A modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following except its ________.A. popularityB. uniform styleC. wide coverageD.speed in reporting news75. According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the “same” newspaper is that __________.A. people have different views about what a good newspaper isB. people are rarely interested in the same kind of newsC.people scan for the news they are interested inD. different people prefer different newspapers76. It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers _________.A. apply reading techniques skillfullyB. jump from one newspaper to anotherC. appreciate the variety of a newspaperD. read a newspaper selectively usually77. A good new spaper offers “a variety” to readers because __________.A. it has to cover things that happen in a certain localityB. readers like to read different newspapersC.it tries to serve different readersD. readers are difficult to please78. The best title for this passage would be “__________”.A. The Characteristics of a Good NewspaperB. The Variety of a Good NewspaperC. The Importance of Newspaper TopicalityD. Some Suggestions on How to Read a NewspaperCI lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head. Now I am thirty two. I can vaguely remember the brightness of sunshine and what color red is. It would be wonderful to see again, but a calamity can do strange things to people. It occurred to me the other day that I might not have come to love life as I do if I hadn't been blind. I believe in life now. I am not so sure that I wouldhave believed in it so deeply, otherwise. I don't mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes. I simply mean that the loss of them made me appreciate the more what I had left.Life, I believe, asks a continuous series of adjustments to reality. The more readily a person is able to make these adjustments, the more meaningful his own private world becomes. The adjustment is never easy. I was bewildered and afraid. But I was lucky. My parents and my teachers saw something in me--a potential to live, you might call it--which I didn't see, and they made me want to fight it out with blindness.The hardest lesson I had to learn was to believe in myself. That was basic. If I hadn't been able to do that, I would have collapsed and become a chair rocker on the front porch for the rest of my life. When I say belief in myself I am not talking about simply the kind of self confidence that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone. That is part of it. But I mean something bigger than that: an assurance that I am, despite imperfections, a real, positive person; that somewhere in the sweeping, intricate pattern of people there is a special place where I can make myself fit.It took me years to discover and strengthen this assurance. It had to start with the most elementary things. Once a man gave me an indoor baseball. I thought he was mocking me and I was hurt. "I can't use this." I said. "Take it with you," he urged me, "and roll it around." The words stuck in my head. "Roll it around! "By rolling the ball I could hear where it went. This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought impossible: playing baseball. At Philadelphia's Overbrook School for the Blind I invented a successful variation of baseball. We called it ground ball.All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then tried to reach them, one at a time. I had to learn my limitations. It was no good to try for something I knew at the start was wildly out of reach because that only invited the bitterness of failure. I would fail sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.79.

The bitterness of failure prevented the author from trying something out of reach.D“OK,”I said to my daughter as she bent over her afternoon bowl of rice. “What‟s going on with you and your friend J.?” J. is the leader of a group of third-graders at her camp-- a position Lucy herself occupied the previous summer. Now she‟s the one on the outs. and every day at snack time, she tells me all about it, while I offer the unhelpful advice all summer long.“She‟s fond of giving orders, ”Lucy complained. “She‟s turning everyone against me. She‟s mean. And she‟s fat.” “Excuse me,” I said, struggling for calm. “What did you just said?” “She‟s fat.” Lucy mumbled(含糊地说).“We‟re going upstairs,” I said, my voice cold. “We‟re going to discuss this.” And up we went. I‟d spent the nine years since her birth getting ready for this day, the day we‟d have the conversatio n about this horrible word. I knew exactly what to say to the girl on the receiving end of the teasing, but in all of my imaginings, it never once occurred to me that my daughter would be the one who used the F word-Fat.My daughter sat on her bed, and I sat beside her. “How would you feel if someone made fun of you for something that wasn‟t your fault?” I began. “She could stop eating so much,” Lucy mumbled, mouthing the simpleadvice a thousand doctors have given overweight women for years.“It‟s not always that easy,” I said . “Everyone‟s different in terms of how they treat food.” Lucy looked at me, waiting for me to go on. I opened my mouth, then closed it. Should I tell her that, in teasing a woman‟s weight, she‟s joined the long tradition of critics? Should I tell her I didn‟t cry when someone posted my picture and commented , “I‟m sorry, but aren‟t authors who write books marketed to young women supposed to be pretty?”Does she need to know, now, that life isn‟t fair ? I feel her eyes on me, waiting for an answer I don‟t have. Words are my tools. Stories are my job. It‟s possible she‟ll remember what I say forever, and I have no idea what to say.So I tell her the only thing I can come up with that is absolutely true. I say to my daughter, “I love you, and there is nothing you could ever do to make me not love you. But I‟m disappointed in you right now. There are plenty of reasons for not liking someone. What she looks like isn‟t one of them. ”Lucy nods, tears on her cheeks. “I won‟t say that again,” she tells me, and I pull her close, pressing my nose against her hair. As we sit there together, I pray for her to be smart and strong. I pray for her to find friends, work she loves, a partner who loves her. And still, always, I pray that she will n ever struggle as I‟ve struggled, that weight will never be her cross to bear. She may not be able to use the word in our home, but I can use in my head. I pray that she will never get fat.84.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 indicates that Lucy ______.A. has turned against her friend J.B.gets along well with her friend J.C. has begun to compete with her friend J.D. often makes fun of her friend J.85.Why does the author want to discuss with Lucy?A. Because she decides to tell Lucy a similar story of her own.B. Because she is really shocked at Lucy‟s rudeness.C. Because she has prepared the conversation for nine years.D. Because she wants to offer some other helpful advice.86.What does the author want to tell her daughter?A. People shouldn‟t complain because life is unfair.B. She herself was once laughed at for her appearance.C. People shouldn‟t be blamed for their appearance.D. It is not easy to take the doctors‟ advice to eat less.87.It can be inferred from the passage that_________.A. the author earns a living by writing stories.B. the author is a fat but good-looking woman.C. the author will stop loving her daughter for what she said.D. the author‟s daughter agreed with her from the very beginning.88.We can learn from the last paragraph that_________.A. Lucy was deeply moved by her mother‟s prayer.B. a mother‟s prayer will shape her daughter‟s attitude towards lifeC. the author allows her daughter to use the F word in her headD. the author hopes her daughter will never have weight trouble89.The author‟s attitude towards her daughter can be best described as _________.A. unsatisfied and angryB. loving but strictC. indifferent but patientD. satisfied and friendlyEAfter 20 years as a full-time wife and mother, I decided to be a school bus driver for I loved kids. After hard practice, by the time school started that year I‟d gotten the hang of it. I was happy in my new work. I became a combination of chauffeur, nurse and friend. An d if the kids needed it, I‟d put on my “Tough Big Sister” act. It was a lot like my previous job---being a mom.When I think about my years of bus driving, many things crowded in, but mostly, I remember Charlie.Charlie, eight years old, with blond hair and crystalline gray eyes, began riding my bus in September of my fourth year driving. They all had stories to tell me about their summers. Charlie, though, ignored me. He didn‟t even answer when I asked his name.From that day on, Charlie was a tr ial. If a fight broke out I didn‟t have to turn my head to know who had started it. If someone was throwing spitballs I could guess the culprit‟s name. If a girl was crying, chances were Charlie had pulled her hair. No matter how I spoke to him, gently or firmly, he wouldn‟t say a word. He‟d just stare at me with those big gray eyes of his.I asked around some, and found out Charlie‟s father was dead and he didn‟t live with his mother. He deserves my patience, I thought. So I practiced every bit of patience I could muster. To my cheer y “Good Morning”, he was silent. When I wished him a happy Halloween, he sneered. Many, many times I asked God how I could reach Charlie. “I‟m at my wit‟s end.” I‟d say. Still I was sure that this child needed to feel some w armth from me. So,when he‟d pass by, I‟d ruffle his hair or pat him on the arm.Toward the end of that year, the kids on my bus gave me a small trophy inscribed “To the Best Bus Driver Ever”. I propped it up on the dashboard. On top I hung a small tin heart that a little girl had given me. In red paint she had written, “I love Polly and Polly loves me.”On the next-to-last day of school I was delayed a few minutes talking to the principal. When I got on the bus I realized that the tin heart was gon e. “Does anyone know what happened to the little heart that was up here?” I asked.For once with 39 children, there was silence.One boy piped up, “Charlie was the first one on the bus. I bet（打赌）he took it.” Other children joined the chorus, “Yeah! Charlie did it! Search him!” I asked Charlie, “Have you seen the heart?”“I don‟t know what you‟re talking about,” he protested（抗议）. Standing up, he took a few pennies and a small ball out of his pockets. “See, I don‟t have it.”“I bet he does!” insisted the girl who had given me the heart. “Check his pockets.”Charlie glowered when I asked him to come forward. His gaze burned into mine. I stuck my hand into one pocket. Nothing. I reached into the other pocket. Then I felt it ---the familiar outline of the small tin heart. Charlie stared at me for a long time. There were no tears in those big gray eyes, no plea(乞求) for mercy. He seemed to be waiting for what he‟d come to expect from the world.I was about to pull the tin heart out of Charlie‟s pocket whenI stopped myself. Let him keep it, a voice seemed to whisper.“It must have fallen off before I got here,” I said to the kids. “I‟ll probably find it back at the depot.” Without a word, Charlie returned to his seat. When he got off at his stop, he didn‟t so much as glance at me.That summer Charlie moved away.Eventually I retired. And there my story as a school bus driver ends, except for one more incident. A dozen years after retirement I was in a department store in Kansas City, when someone said tentatively, “Polly?”I turned to see a balding（在脱发的）man who was approaching middle age. “Yes?”His face didn‟t look familiar until I noticed his big gray eyes. There was no doubt. It was Charlie.He told me he was living in Montana and doing well. Then, to my surprise, he hugged me. After he let go, he pulled something from his pocket and held it up for me to see. An old key chain….bent out of shape, the lettering faded. You can probably guess what it was---the little tin heart that said, “I love Polly and Polly loves me.”“You were the only one who kept trying,” he explained. We hugged again, and went our separate ways. That night I thought over his words. You were the only one who kept trying. Before I fell asleep I thanked the Lord for the reassurance that I‟d done a good job and for all the qualifications he‟d given me to do it with.90. From whose point of view is the story told?A. a mother‟sB. Polly‟sC. Charlie‟sD.
